Reminder: City Council and CRA to Hold Meetings Today (Tuesday, Sept. 8)
The Pensacola City Council will host an Agenda Conference Tuesday, Sept. 8 at 3:30 p.m., immediately followed by a Community Redevelopment Agency Meeting. Both meetings will be held in Council Chambers located on the first floor of City Hall, 222 W. Main St. Members of the public may attend and participate via live stream and/or phone only.
Some Council Members may be attending by telephonic conferencing. Further, no public may physically be in attendance. This change in format is consistent with Executive Order 20-69 issued by Gov. Ron DeSantis and has been adopted at the direction of Council President Jewel Cannada-Wynn in consultation with the City Attorney.
